[PATCH] boot: add support for fdt_fixup command in environment
The "fdt" command is convenient for making small changes to the OS FDT, especially during development. This is easy when the kernel and FDT are loaded separately, but can be cumbersome for FIT images, requiring to unpack the image, manually apply overlays, etc.
Add an option to execute a command "fdt_fixup" from the environment at the beginning of image_setup_libfdt() (after overlays are applied, and before the other fixups).

Makes sense, I'll add a unit test.

Not necessarily in all code paths that lead to image_setup_libfdt().
ret = run_command_list(fdt_fixup, -1, 0);if (ret)printf("WARNING: fdt_fixup command returned %d\n",ret);}Would it make sense to put this code near the end of the function, after other fixups have been done?
With separate image and FDT, one would usually run the fdt command to modify the FDT before bootm, so the modifications also happen before other fixups. My intention was to get the same behavior for FIT images.
I don't care much either way though, for most fixups the order shouldn't matter too much, and we can always add an fdt_fixup_early or fdt_fixup_late if an actual usecase for such a sequence of fixups comes up.

Applied to u-boot/next, thanks!
